When reopening a dxf that had the dimension text aligned differently than the default, the text position has the same X position for vertical dimensions and the same Y position for horizontal dimensions as the dimension line. In other words, changes to the text position are not saved or loaded when reopening a file.

For example:1) Create the drawing and take a dimension measurementDimension Line on (X, Y): (110, 1680)Text Position changed to (X, Y): (100, 1255)

2) Save file, close it and reopen itDimension Line on (X, Y): (110, 1680)Text Position on (X, Y): (110, 1255)

The text height (in drawing preferences) is set to 15 and page printing scale is 1:5 (if it matters).

QCAD Professional 3.4.2.0 on Ubuntu 13.04. See the attached file for the program specs.

For the audience: the gist of the workaround is:1) select all dimensions2) enter the command: dimregen

Thanks again, Husky !

To the developers: this problem doesn't occur straight away. My dimensions are in a separate layer. Instinctively, I think the problem started after I added another layer after the dimensions layer.I'll test it out in the next couple of days and report here.
